Rules and etiquette for competitions and warm up
• Please park sensibly and with consideration for others needing space around you • Do not leave horses tied to vehicles unattended • Clear up after yourself from any parking areas – this includes droppings • Only competitors entered for the day are allowed to be mounted. It is not permissible for someone else to warm up your horse for you. • Anyone mounted must have correct safety wear – hat, boots, jodhpurs • No lunging in warm up arenas or car park areas is allowed • Only tack permissible in your competition may be worn warming up. No draw reins, etc. • When warming up remember to pass left to left and give each other plenty of room, early enough to avoid interference. • If you are walking or standing still, you must use the inside track, only use the outside track for trot and canter work. • Do not practice centre lines – this will inevitably cause collisions with others riding circles or diagonal movements. • Your instructor may assist with your warm-up but it should be carried out in a quiet and unobtrusive manner. Not everyone wants to hear. • Be aware of your start time – a lot of competitions are self stewarding and it is your responsibility to present yourself at the arena on time. A clock is often provided in the warm up area. • On entering the arena give way to the previous competitor exiting and make your name or number known to the judge.

Please remove all your hay and droppings from Brinsbury as we will not be able to use it if it’s left messy!
